QC TO USE MOBILE BANKING THRU USAID

The Quezon City government will soon use mobile banking (m-banking) to improve the city’s financial services including payment system, electronic payroll distribution, government services, and agent networking distribution. The QC government, on orders from Mayor Herbert Bautista, has partnered with the United States Agency for International Development (Usaid) in developing a Scaling Innovation in Mobile Money (SIMM) project. SIMM is a two-year project that aims to promote the usage and access to m-banking by QC government in transacting business with the public through new technologies.
